Hey mom and dad,> > This week has been great. The conference was really good too. We took the 2 Sanchez boys to the priesthood session. Then we went to one on saturday and the morning on sunday. I really enjoyed the talks. So for the Priesthood and sat. session I got to watch in english with the other newer missionaries. The Priesthood session started at 9pm! Thats usually when we are back in the apartment planning. We took a taxi and then it ended at 11pm. We were so tired and then took a taxi home. After we dropped off the Sanchez boys the taxi decided that it wanted to break down. This is after we have passed about 10 groups of the night crowd...not good. We get out and the driver is trying to start his car...nope. So we help him try to push start it nope. Well we are standing there at 12pm in a shirt and tie, the only white people, with blonde hair and it sucks. Luckily no one came up and tried to do anything. The taxi driver called another to come get us and we got to bed about 12.30. It was a day. Then for the sunday morning session all the newer missionaries are in another room for english. Its all calm and nice, we are talking english, have the fan going, windows open and we are sitting in chairs listening. Then the stake pres. comes in and says we need to change this to spanish and put chairs in here because theres not enough room for all the people. They brought in about 50 chairs into a tiny room. Then they brought in 2 tables for the elders to sit on. What the crap? It got so hot in there and we were sitting on tables. The entire stake center was completely packed and every room and chair was used. 600 in total. It was still a good session though. That afternoon we decided to go out and work instead of stay in the hot church with hundreds of people. We ended up teaching 9 lessons in 1 afternoon. This was amazing we were extremely blessed. We are having another baptism this week...saturday 12th. Its an 18 year old girl Estephania, who has been investigating for a really long time. We are excited for her. Well this week I ate chicken brain...hmmm. It tasted horrible and Im sending pictures in the next email.

Hey mom,> Heres a quick note. Wow im surprised that Bro. Riquelmes sister is in merlo. Im in a cyber in merlo right now. I go to merlo every pday! And I knew that BOCA...was his team. Everyone here is obsessed with that team. Yea the shirt is like a childs 6 haha. I sent it to adrian and think that it is way to small for her. I feel kinda bad about sending it because of her emotions and all. Well the chicken brain tasted like crap. Yep just about like crap. It was gross. Well I hope that scott gets out of the mtc and into the field. About the email. I can get it from anyone that is family. Like aunt lisas letter and all is all good. But from friends and stuff I have to write them. Yea that sub sandwich costed 8 pesos...$2.30. It is nice.
